Can you identify this element of Vista installed at the factory... it is hardware or software?

I have a desktop HP Pavilion Media Center under Windows Vista Home Premium. I am trying to solve a problem with the TV Tuner. I tried everything I can find to solve the problem, but without success. I just need an answer to this...

On the bottom of my computer, I see a list of hardware and software that has been installed at the factory. I am interested is displayed as "GENUINE WINDOWS VISTA HOME Premium TUNER DIGITAL".

My question: is - this software or hardware? If it is a software, I can't find to uninstall and reinstall, which is what I would do. If it is hardware, what it look like? I would like to locate and replace it.

Thank you

Back to the original question, to which I have the answer. "GENUINE WINDOWS VISTA HOME Premium DIGITAL TUNER" is Microsoft Vista which is loaded on the hard drive. It is NOT hardware and software it's my operating system.

There is no guessing what is in my PCI-E slot. It's My Nvidia GeForce 9800 GT 1024 MB graphics card. There is no tuner embedded, or "video" as you call it.

To finalize my contributions to this post, I have fixed my original problem I came here looking for advice for in the first place. It's actually a corrupt Windows operating system file that runs my TV tuner, which caused all my problems. I reinstalled my Vista operating system to its original state, and now the TV tuner works fine.

Thank you for making at least an attempt to help out me. As you can see, over 6 billion people on the planet, only came forward... I appreciate it.
